We received our tickets to the Rhode Island Comic Con. This is the 10th anniversary of the event but it will be the first time that we will attend. I got tickets for me and for Eva to attend so that she can do some cosplaying and meet other cosplayers. This is also going to be one of the biggest comic cons that we will have attended. I’m looking forward to it very much.

This year for my birthday “I took the night off work so that I could take Eva into Boston for the Wicked Comic Con. This was a daddy/daughter day to replace our Father Daughter Dance that we did not get to celebrate. In all honesty this was the type of event that was more our speed. Eva got dressed in her Technoblade cosplay. Technoblade is a character from a Minecraft thing called Dream SMP. Eva has been working on this cosplay for a while. She has such joy doing it.

When we walked into the con there was a a kid who immediately recognized Eva’s cosplay and asked if they could get a photo with her. She was over the moon. Throughout the day she was recognized over and over and took many photos with people.

We walked through the con and checked out all sorts of artists and vendors. There was a booth selling fake swords. Eva picked up one of The Witcher’s swords, The Wolf. The did not get his second sword, The Snake. she found it absurd that The Witcher has two swords that do not match. She was quite excited about her new sword, though. She’ll always have a place in her heart for her first sword, the Nerf one I got her when she was a kid. She has also made her own foam sword. She’ll probably make more over time as she learns to use E.V.A. foam with her cosplays.

While we were at the show there was a a whole cosplay area and Eva got to meet Mink the Satyr. Mink was very gracious and she complimented Eva on her scar makeup. Eva was beaming. Eva found so many great people to follow and to become inspired by their work. Eva also decided to enter the cosplay contest. She had a great time meeting people and being a part of the competition. She’s very excited for her next Comic-Con and has already come up with a number of ideas for other cosplays and projects.

when we got home we enjoyed Birthday Cake that Andy and Allison made while we were gone. They had a very nice day together and it was good for Andy to have a day with Allison and me to have a day with Eva. Both kids had moments that showed their character and we all had a fantastic time talking about our day as we celebrated with the cake.
